Chapter 35: Bad Luck
After all, it was because of the festival. Although there was no night above the Nine Heavens, the twinkling lights everywhere were very beautiful.
The flower fairies appeared in gorgeous and exquisite clothes, holding various flower wines in their hands.
Peach blossom wine, osmanthus wine, green plum wine, etc. are so dazzling.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Jiu also met an acquaintance, the Qinglian God who had turned against Ji Ling when she forced her to get married.
"You three are so elegant."
Qinglian has the signature squinting eyes and an inexplicable smile that makes people feel treacherous, but his voice is very gentle and sounds like a modest gentleman.
"...God, you too."
Jiang Jiu suddenly remembered that the two supreme gods who had stood in Ji Ling's place in the past had fallen in realm for unknown reasons and were no longer able to hold their positions. In addition, Chi Li had voluntarily resigned from the position of supreme god, so the current Supreme God Qinglian seemed to be the only Supreme God.
"Master Immortal, do you have any requests today?"
Qinglian glanced at Ji Chen and Fo Jiang with interest in his eyes, like an excited spectator.
"The person you are looking for is already beside you."
Ji Chen glanced at Jiang Jiu indifferently, and his cold expression softened slightly, but when he looked at Qinglian, his eyes were a little cold.
Qinglian's eyebrows twitched, but he finally stopped teasing. Although he was a supreme god, offending the Immortal Lord was not a good choice.
"Buddha's son..."
He turned around and wanted to find someone else to talk to, but Fo Jiang raised his eyes, and the alienation in his eyes made him speechless.
The Buddhist saint has always been compassionate and merciful to others, and Qinglian was a little uncomfortable when he suddenly showed this attitude.
"I have long since left Buddhism and cannot be considered a disciple of Buddha."
Fojiang put his hands together, turning the Buddhist beads in his hands, and what he said made Qinglian look surprised.
"How can Buddhism agree to this? You are the most promising saint in Buddhism for thousands of years."
Qinglian vaguely still remembers the day when Fojiang became the Buddha Emperor, when the rosy clouds almost illuminated the entire Nine Heavens.
How could that be?
Qinglian's surprise made Jiang Jiu feel a little embarrassed. She secretly glanced at Fojiang, and her heart became more and more uneasy. If it weren't for her, Fojiang would still be the holy son of Buddhism. It was all her fault.
"No, it's not your fault."
Fo Jiang keenly caught Jiang Jiu's gaze, as if he could read his mind, and denied Jiang Jiu's thoughts.
“!”
Jiang Jiu was startled and looked away awkwardly.
"But even so, your name, Fo Jiang, is known to everyone in the Nine Heavens."
Qinglian continued to speak politely.
"It's good if one person knows."
Fo Jiang hinted at something, and Jiang Jiu could feel the burning gaze on her back.
Fo Jiang was never a truly pure and indifferent person, but he seemed so indifferent because he was suppressed by Buddhism.
Now that I have come into contact with the one I love, I will pursue her at all costs.
After all, Jiang Jiu didn't understand Fo Jiang well enough.
"The peach blossom trees and the marriage tree are in full bloom today. If you have the chance, you three can go and tie a red string."
Qinglian was enjoying the fun. He could sense that Jiang Jiu was the one being fought over, so he started to exaggerate.
"Thank you for your concern, Lord Qinglian..."
Jiang Jiu was overwhelmed and poked several holes in Qinglian's body with his eyes. It was his fault for bringing up such a matter.
"No need to thank me."
Qinglian smiled, and his fox-like squinting eyes seemed to become even more curved. It was obvious that he was in a good mood.
"I won't disturb your pleasure."
He left after saying this, which made Jiang Jiu feel so angry that he wanted to beat him to death.
"There's no need to get angry or hurt yourself because of him. Qinglian didn't die in the Ninth Heaven because of his extraordinary strength. If he wasn't a Supreme God, but an ordinary immortal, he wouldn't be alive today."
Ji Chen saw what Jiang Jiu was thinking and immediately began to explain.
"How did Master know?"
Jiang Jiu tilted his head in confusion. Ji Chen had only been on the Immortal Lord stage for a short time, so how could he know so much?
"Because he also came to see me and said some...unspeakable words."
Ji Chen got a headache whenever he mentioned this. As a dignified god, he didn't perform his duties properly every day, but only paid attention to gossip.
From time to time, he would come to ask about his relationship progress, and he was the only one who would ask gossip in front of the main person. At the beginning, Ji Chen would still patiently meet him, after all, he was a supreme god and it was not easy to ignore him. Now he has become so skilled at giving him the cold shoulder.
"?"
Jiang Jiu thought about Qinglian's previous move, and her expression became weird. Maybe she knew what type of words Qinglian would say.
"Forget it, let's go see the marriage tree."
Jiang Jiu shook his head to dispel the strange thoughts in his head. Chi Li had promised Liu Bai before that he would restore his position as the God of Marriage. Maybe he could meet him today.
There were more novel and interesting things along the way than Jiang Jiu had imagined. In addition to the spiritual fruit wine, there were also some ancient treasures that made people stop in their tracks.
"You like this?"
Ji Chen followed Jiang Jiu's gaze and fell on the object, a pocket-sized purse that looked a bit like a Qiankun bag, but with a different effect.
"Hey! Isn't this Fairy Qingyuan? Come and see this thing! It's a magical tool that can predict love, and it's quite accurate!"
The stall owner seemed to be an immortal of considerable status. He immediately recognized Ji Chen and Jiang Jiu, and his eyes gleamed with gold.
These two are big money sponsors.
Who can be richer than the current Immortal Lord, and who can be more generous than the Fairy Qingyuan who is in the limelight.
"Love prediction?"
The corner of Jiang Jiu's mouth twitched. She thought it was some kind of storage magic device, but it turned out to be even more useless than she imagined.
Just when Jiang Jiu wanted to refuse, Ji Chen took the initiative to order the item.
"I bought it."
Jiang Jiu was stunned and turned to look at Ji Chen, somewhat puzzled.
Does the Immortal Lord still believe in this kind of thing?
"Hey, look carefully. You can feel out a fortune stick formed by spiritual energy from this thing. If it's a great fortune stick, it means a top-notch marriage. If it's a bad fortune stick..."
The stall owner hesitated for a moment, as if wondering whether to say something nice, but Ji Chen interrupted him.
"It's not important. I just bought it to cheer up my disciples."
She was the only one Ji Chen could still call his disciple. Even using the title of disciple still made Jiang Jiu blush.
"Okay."
The stall owner also understood something, and looked at Jiang Jiu with an ambiguous look, and secretly made a "come on" gesture to Ji Chen.
“…”
Ji Chen's expression froze. Whether he was the head of the sect or the Immortal Lord, he had never encountered such a situation.
I was actually encouraged to pursue my wife?
"Since I've already bought it, I might as well try it."
Jiang Jiu liked this pocket purse very much, mainly because it looked nice. As soon as he got it, he opened it excitedly and wanted to try it.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he took out a fortune stick, Jiang Jiu had a bad feeling.
As expected, when I opened it, it said "bad luck".
